- Appearing in the highly regarded Early Irish Fiction series from Four Courts Press, this scholarly edition breaks new ground on several fronts. Roberts’ impeccably presented text and editorial apparatus represent ten years of editorial work which included fellowships from the AHRC and Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi. Richly informed by new findings from numerous Indian and British archives, this edition presents Johnston’s oriental fantasy in the context of Irish and Anglo-American political developments during an era of imperial expansion. It makes, in Norma Clarke’s words, ‘a vital contribution to our understanding of eighteenth-century Ireland in English literature’ (TLS, 31 July 2015).
